Poems
Feb 2016
They said.
Too good to be true,
Your life.
They said.
Pull your head out of
Your ***.
They said
So why do you weep,
And why can't you sleep,
Your problem is just that you're spoilt.
They said.
I surely have had a
Good life.
I said.
Let me just paint you a
Picture.
I said.
It's like showing the blind,
A Monet that you find,
Asking "Why don't you smile at the beauty?"
I said.
How dare you compare to
The blind
They said.
This is all in your head,
That's not.
They said.
So why do you ache,
And why do you fake,
Your problem is just that your spoilt.
They said.
Let me try to explain
Again
I said.
Let me hum you a tune,
A rhyme
I said.
It's like playing the deaf,
A sonnet in F,
Asking "Why don't you dance to the beauty?"
I said.
How dare you compare
The deaf
They said.
You're trying to escape
From what!
They said.
So why do you fear,
And why don't you hear,
Your problem is just that you're spoilt.
They said.
I'm tired and I'm broken,
Inside.
I said.
It's raw and exposed,
My soul.
I said.
So all I shall say,
To wrap up this day,
I don't understand how to feel joy,
I said.
Those who understand will understand.
